"I would love to know why anyone, ever, would believe this to be a foul ball"
Here in Germany for NFHS, the umpires have to buy their own rule books. Not sure if anyone except me has one. I just worked the HS Championships this weekend and I was the only one who had their rule book and case book. Even the UIC didn't have one. I've landed in Umpire Purgatory. Fortunately, the coaches have no clue either.
Had a coach question me this weekend, gave him my answer, he went back to dugout. After game he came to me and said he was testing me because he had never seen me. Said I was the only one who answered his question correctly. It had to do with DP/FLEX.
